The moment in Band of Brothers where one of the men is hit during a night raid, and he's dying in a room afterward and says "I don't want to die". That part hits emotionally hard. The actor really nails the existential fear in that moment and the pain the others around him go through watching him die and not being able to save him. Both of my grandfathers and their 3 brothers fought in WWII in Europe and the Atlantic. They all somehow made it through, but very nearly didn't. The level of respect for these people of that generation is inexpressible. My Grandfather's brother told me once in passing about how he walked into the prison camps and saw the horrid conditions of the people there and the piles of clothing from the dead. He went on to tell me about how he spent years after the war tracking down the mass burial grounds by asking locals for clues and digging up the bodies and giving them proper burials. He spent years of effort to find all those paratroopers who got killed and were not given proper burials by the Nazis. Years, just digging corpses and he said it calmly in passing without expecting a bit of praise. Years. I sometimes wonder what such an experience does to someone and how he managed to keep his sanity and go on with a regular life afterward. And that is just what he did after the war, what happened during it was so much worse.

I’m a female and it hurts to know that a lot of my male friends haven’t cried in years. They don’t allow themselves to because they’ve always been taught to be “strong” and “be a man”. In contrast to woman who are given so much support and safe space to cry, men don’t have that nearly as much as they should. Smitty in this scene was more than a tough guy facade, he was a tough badass to kill, but at the end of the day, he was a man who deserved a better life than what he was handed. I’m glad he had Desmond there to trust his fear and vulnerability to, but sad that it takes a literal war and breaking of his spirit to get there. Too many men bear such a weight to be strong, they deserve better than that.

@@iricrescent2901 No its deeper than teaching. It relates to innate genetic predispositions and instincts. A fair amount of it relates to intrasexual competition so men will avoid crying in front of other men. The vast majority of all violence committed is committed by men and it is committed against other men. Males for most of our evolutionary history survived via a reputation for being dangerous and capable of defending themselves. But any man can tell you that crying in front of a woman does not go over as well as many women claim it will. Women emasculate men who weep. More often than not using it as an opportunity to attack and belittle them. They also paise men who are the rocks or foundations for them, precisely because they do not weep and break down during adversity.

I don't believe in any God but I absolutely understand why people do. Desmond Doss is a prime example of someone using the strength and passion he has in his beliefs to do what he wants to do, in the way he believes his God wishes him to do it. In my eyes it was just a person calling for help, but in Desmond's eyes it was his God using that person as a vessel to convey his will for Desmond. This movie portrays that beautifully and it makes for an incredibly hearttouching moment :)

Doss was a true Hero of Heroes - his accomplishments still shine as a beacon to all men - what it truly means to be "A Man".

Love it when writers/directors/editors decide that perfect one liner moment be left unsaid and silent. When he stands, puts on his helmet and steels himself for what he’s about to do, they left the moment quiet rather than ruin it with a cheesy line like Time to get to work. I mean I felt it, but he didn’t have to say it. Andrew and everyone in this movie did a fantastic job. My wife hates war movies but really likes this one despite the horrific scenes of men slaughtering each other because another man with little metal decorations on his lapel said to do so.

The president of the United States, a combat veteran veterans like himself, knew that even among the 15 metal of honor recipients he had out that day, that Doss was someone special.

This is legitimately one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen. Everything about it is so masterfully done.

Andrew Garfield has brought me tears with his acting in more than one instance, This, Spider-Man, hell even his blow up scene in Social Network, dude is phenomenal.

For those who don’t know, him focusing on Smitty’s face is adding in the IRL part that Doss stopped checking men’s faces in case they were his friends Hence why he later rescues a couple Japanese on accident

Perhaps the most powerful moment of the movie is when Desmond had just lost Schmitty. When all seems lost around him and he is questioning his faith and sanity as it combats with madness, he asks God, "What is it you want from me?" and he gets a response from a fellow soldier screaming for a medic.

7:34 Legendary moment.

My man really said “I’m the force and the force is with me”

It was the most graphic..... grisly...... horrifying.... heart stomping..... emotionally ..... powerful film is ever seen.. and Desmond dos was walking right into horror of war!!!

This is 1 of the best movies that I have ever seen. I can only hope to be half the man that was Desmond Doss.

We had a pistol and shot back as we called the cops but they never showed up.The next day we went back and it was a meth lab dumping ground we unknowingly were near.

My most effective character was Claymore the neutral good cleric. His name was a play on words for the Sword of the Spirit.

But mostly he would throw healing grace around. He was like an irresistible tank of healing, walking right into the heart of battle. This was me playing AD&D back in the 80's. A good comparison in our modern day would be the movie Hacksaw Ridge from 2016 with Andrew Garfield playing Desmond Doss back in World War II. I keep having these dreams of Ambulances being retro-fitted for Combat.

He could have gotten the ridge last, and no one would have thought any less of him. Instead, he goes back into hell and starts lowering others before going back in again.

What I see in this scene: He could either run back home to safety or go back to hell and bring the injured home alive with him.

This movie is the reason i fought for my country.

I'm not a traditionally religious person. By any stretch of the word traditional. However, when Desmond stops and tells his God that he doesn't understand and that he can't hear him in this hellscape of a battlefield, and through the din and chaos of artillery strikes he clearly hears people calling and frantically pleading for his help, it's clear that his God was giving him the most direct answer that he could. Desmond was nothing short of a hero. I know that he would say otherwise, because he did, but nobody can ever take away the deeds of this man's absolute selflessness and gallantry in the face of horrors most of us will never understand. Even for someone like me, there's power in a scene like that and Andrew played this astoundingly.

7:52 32. Only 32 men came down unassisted. Doss more than tripled that. I don't know how accurate that line was but if there's any truth to it... man...
